Is there a Disney Channel In the US In HD right now?

If not any clue if there will be in the near future. I know were going to get a HD Tv when we move with Digital cable but I have no clue if theres one out yet or not. I cant find any info on it from the cable company either.

I know my uncle has an HD TV and it does get Disney Channel. However, I'm not sure if that means Disney itself is shown in HD.

from what i understand, Disney IS avalialble on HD TV's and plans, BUT Disney does not play any of it's shows in HD. the HD receiver simply plays it in normal TV mode, but streaches the signal to fit the TV, lowering the quality.

what i like is that i have all the video of KP in HD, which is what i use to take my screen caps. Even after being converted into a avi or a MOV the file is still 900 Mb
if you wanted the raw mpeg video, you need 5 gigs for just the 30 minutes of KP video :P

I need to do some research on weather things can be upgraded to HD or not... I Dunno if animations like KP can be done or not. I really dont know much about HD but I know that the quality from what i've seen is crazy clear and so sharp.

Nice. I know about the capacity of blu-ray is just crazy (mainly because I've though of getting a playstation 3) I sure that blu-ray will be the replacement for dvds. I think Hd dvd will end up like UMD and never really getting anywhere in the market.

I'm curious, WallaceB, on how you managed to obtain the eps in HD. Once you do that, then of course you can simply run them through a video software editing program like Final Cut and simply render out the screen caps accordingly. But the initial video being in HD, that must come from Australia or something like that I bet.

Exactly, you hit it on the head. i get it from a friend in Australia who uploads the video to me. I actually use my own software i wrote myself to take the screen caps. it s a fully automated system. i set it to take an image every second, and it saves it for me.
